.SH NAME
\fBdevinit\fR \- short-running udev module autoloader
'''
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBdevinit\fR [\fB-i\fR]
'''
.SH DESCRIPTION
This tool is a short-running, non-service counterpart to \fBudevmod\fR(8).
It spawns a script, and keeps doing the necessary udev modprobing work while
the script is running. Once the script exists, so does \fBdevinit\fR.
.P
\fBdevinit\fR is meant to be used primarily in initrd environment (with
\fB-i\fR) to run tools like \fBfindblk\fR(1), making sure modules get loaded
as busses and devices appear in the system.
